Taylor Swift fans spark safety concerns over 'dangerous' act after Eras Tour shows canceled in Vienna over failed terror plot
Taylor Swift fans have sparked safety concerns after gathering in a large group to sing together following the cancelation of her Eras Tour concerts due to a terrorist threat.
Thousands of Swifties were left heartbroken after it was revealed that the 34-year-old singer's three shows that were planned for this weekend in Vienna, Austria, were no longer happening after government officials uncovered an Isis terror plot.
On Thursday, hoards of devastated fans gathered near the stadium to trade bracelets, belt out her tunes, and bond over their mutual disappointment.
But some people on the web wondered if the massive meetup was safe following the news that two men had planned to drive a truck into crowds of fans entering Taylor's concert and 'kill as many people as possible.'
Footage of huge crowds of Swifties accumulating in the Austrian capital went viral on X, formerly Twitter, and left thousands worried for their wellbeing.

'Isn't that a little dangerous after what happened?' one person wrote.
'This is really sweet but it's arguably more dangerous than just having the concert...' added another.
'I saw people streaming this on TikTok Live. I don't understand how they're not scared, like, there was a terrorist threat,' agreed someone else.
'That's not something to take lightly. Even if they are in custody there could be others that were working with them.'
'This is so unsafe y'all,' read a fourth tweet, while a fifth said, 'I'm sure they have good intentions, but that's probably not very smart.'
'The difference between this and the concert is that the concert had security, metal detectors, and bag checks,' a different user pointed out.
However, some fans who were at the event revealed that law enforcement was present and had 'blocked off the streets' for them to gather.
'Before anyone starts, this is a safe gathering and police are protecting them,' one person piped in.

'This is a great message to show that they're not afraid of them and that what happened won't stop them from having fun and living their life,' tweeted another user.
'Swifties are the best little community. Always love and positivity. I'm glad they are making the most out a bad situation,' gushed a different person.
'This is so wholesome,' said someone else.
'I was there and I wanted to avoid it at first because I was scared. But I'm so glad I went,' revealed one attendee.
'For me, it was reclaiming what those people tried to take from us, it was mourning what we lost together, it was cheering each other up.'

Beran A., 19, was arrested in Ternitz, south of Vienna, Wednesday morning while a second teen, aged 17, was detained in the Austrian capital in the afternoon, according to director-general for public safety Franz Ruf.
Austrian media reported that the suspects planned to drive a car into groups of Swifties expected to gather outside the venue before attacking with machetes and knives.

The 19-year-old reportedly said he wanted to 'kill as many people as possible outside the concert venue.'
Franz also confirmed that 'explosives were manufactured' at the suspect's home after local media reported that the 19-year-old had stolen chemicals from his former workplace, a metal processing company also in Ternitz, to build a bomb.
'Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour Vienna shows canceled due to government officials' confirmation of planned terrorist attack,' a statement posted by the promoter on Wednesday read.
'With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone's safety.
'All tickets will be automatically refunded within the next 10 business days.'
